Chapter 153 

Jonas 

A glare flashes in my eyes from a distance. I look around trying to find where it comes from only to hear a low laugh from the thing in my neck. I spot a shadow move in the trees up ahead. I don’t know why I feel relief knowing her position. I can’t tell if it’s because I know where she is or because she’s here on Perry’s orders

The pack land’s neutral grounds are beautiful. There are six buildings connected to a seventh in the center. The middle tower is where we all meet. I am in what is referred to as the Lycan House

I can’t stay here, it’s just a meetandgreet location, but it’s nice. The building itself has a modern Greek build. High ceilings. and white marble columns. Lots of open space. The inside is decorated with printed pictures of old Lycan Kings and old newspaper prints. Some of this stuff is actually authentic

The Alpha King is approaching,” Mackenzie informs me. Six guards and his baby sister,” 

Thanks,I whisper

Hmm?Silas looks up at me from a book he picked up. I shake my head and order our guards to spread out

Jonas,the Alpha King walks in with a little girl behind him. She’s tiny and I want to say she’s five or six but with wolve always hard to tell

Rick. What’s going on?I offer him my hand the way Perry insists. He smiles and takes it

No fucking clue, man,” he sits down

He looks nervous. The little girl stops in front of me and looks up. She’s cute. Big blue eyes, her hair is pulled up in two pigtails, and she’s wearing all kinds of pink. She steps back when I take a knee in front of her

Hi, I’m Jonas,I introduce myself

Melody,she says in the sweetest voice. You’re really big,” 

Yeah,I smile. She leans in looking at my teeth

So, sharp,she giggles and then turns to her brother. He holds out his hand and she jumps into his lap

This is my little sister. My parents are out of town,” 

Jo, where is-speaking of sisters. Andromeda walks in with an armful of snacks and toys she probably got at the gift shop

I feel you, Kid. That’s my sister,I say. Andromeda, this is the Alpha King, Rodrick Savage. Rick this is my little sister, Andromeda,” 

Pleasure,the Alpha King stands with his little sister in his arms to shake Annie’s hand. She looks around panicked and chooses to drop all her treasures onto Silas’s lap

The pleasure is all mine. I just finished reading your propnine profile and I just want to say, wow. You’re like hella pro- women,she grips his forearm and shakes his hand the way Lycan Monarchs do. The Alpha King grins but returns the gesture. Bro, your arms are jacked,” 

Thank you?he says unsure. I actually didn’t write propnine. My brother Ace did. If you ever meet him, you’ll be able to tell he’s hella prowomen,my sister laughs. He handles civil affairs,” 

Me too. Well, I’m studying for that. I still have two years before Jonas lets me start working for real,”

Chapter 153 

How old is she?he asks. I can never tell with your kind,” 

She’s seventeen,” 

Well, I can’t wait to see what you come up with,he smiles at her

Did you need something, Annie?I ask

I was looking for Jordan and the twins. I lost them in the shopping center,she grins at Melody. And what’s your name?” 

Melody,” she giggles

I bet it sucks being stuck with your dumb big brother all the time,Annie twirls her hair

Yeah,” she nods

Me too. Want to make the guards panic,” 

+5 

Please, Ricky. Please. You never let me do anything,Melody starts kicking up a storm. He looks between the two of them as Melody reaches for Annie

Andromeda is trained. And Perry’s former shadow is watching her,” 

Alan,” he calls out. A guard from outside comes in immediately. Watch them. No one goes near either,” 

My King,he bows. Annie finally takes Melody and offers her a pastry

I can show you where the bestest ones are. That way,she points 

I love you. Never leave my side,Annies says and takes off with her. We’re going to try all the snacks,” 

The Alpha King shakes his head when his baby sister lets out a feral giggle

Mel is definitely going to get her in trouble,” 

Not if Annie beats her to it,I sit down while Silas puts Annie’s things together. Perry informed me that you’re all having trouble with the Vampire King,” 

Yeah,he sits down. The King has been reporting missing humans along the west coast. Knightly is pissed and when that fuck is pissed we all suffer. The vamp has been having these parties near Dartmouth. Alpha Lewis is in charge of the school and he’s requesting backup. My brother Quinn is going down there with a handful of guards, that’s the best I can do without poking at the treaty,” 

I can assist. I have Lycans up there. They don’t like to poke their heads in on anyone’s business but if I ask they would jump at the chance of doing their King a favor,” 

I want Quinn to see how bad things are before doing anything, but thanks for the offer. I’ll let you know what he reports,he looks me over. How are you doing?” 

I’m busy,I say honestly

Besides that,” 

I don’t know. I haven’t had time to think,I rotate my shoulders 

That’s good. For now,he nods. Let’s focus on the vampire. You hear anything?” 

Just the same shit we talked about. He seems a little off. I heard he’s been held up in his chambers,”

Chapter 153 

He’s losing it. Calling this meeting is a power move. We could really use Perry, right about now. Wilde has gone MIA,” 

She said she had some business back home at Perry’s funeral,” 

Really?he scoffs in annoyance. I didn’t know she was headed back to Magique. She hasn’t been there in a long time,” 

You know her?Silas asks

I knew her. A long time ago. Back when she first went rogue. She was all kinds of angry,” 

Still is,both Silas and I say at the same time. He grins

Figures, but she hated her father with a passion. I honestly believe she’s going to kill him one day. Wolfes are just nuts,” 

So I’ve heard,”

Vampires,Mackenzie’s whisper catches my attention. I stand up and get to the door. In the distance, I spot three blacked- out SUVs headed toward the Vampire house. The Alpha King joins me

You felt that?he asks skeptically

Lie,Mackenzie offers

It’s hard not to,” 

I’ll see you inside,” 

The Alpha King searches my face for a very brief second before he nods. With a wave of his hand, his guards fall in line. They go after him. Silas and I watch him walk to the Wolf house 

He’s friendly, but he doesn’t like when he’s not the baddest bitch in the room,Silas laughs

That’s for damn sure,” Mackenzie agrees. Little sisters in the courtyard. Let me know if you need me inside. Make sure you’re locked and loaded before leaving that house. You’re not his friend. Remember that. Especially in that hall,”
